Well, i'm feeling adventurous and have decided that i'd like to customise my signature a little more than single layer graphics I intent to prefer. So once this one's made folks your gonna have to get used to it cos what i've got in mind will probably stick.
The payment is now 30 Million. And some resources required for the sig are supplied in links to this thread.
Description
As a similar template for this signature it would have to be either Korrd's or possibly Hoodlum's. The two dominant images in the picture will be one of these two images; preferrably the smaller version; and a planet. I need both to be given that 'noir' mojo. Sillhoutted more like. So i'd like the picture of the guy to be made blackened, like Korrd's. I'd like the planet to have the same effect as the planet used for the 'Heroes' TV series, but not clearly resembled. I'd like the signature to cover the same amount of space as the forum allows without it having to increase the frame area of your post. Whatever that is. Around the same size as Hoodlum's would be perfect. I'd also like the planet to not totally fit into the signature, so that it seems quite large and exceeds the perimeters. Basically what i mean is if you've got a whole circle that's to big to fit into a rectangle your only going to see some of it inside the rectangle. And i'd like to see the planet come in on either one of the sides or corners, and feel free to let it take up space, requests for modifications may be asked so be sure to save each step you make or whatever you guys do with photoshop.
One last point about the planet, it would be quality to have some 3D effect on it or somthing, rather than just a black circle, obviousley keep the center of the circle black but a little effect around the edges would be awesome.
What you guys do with the space in between is up to you. Thrown in some images, or blow in some smoke or jazz it up a little, but try and keep the 'anonymous noir character' feel. And no writing! This is strictly a picture signature.
Requirements
This picture or This picture sillhouted/black/noir/character made anonymous
A planet similar to this one but without colour and not exactly the same
The same size as Hoodlum's
Planet appears in the signature from one of the sides or corners
Mind, there are a few problems with the signature being like this;
your requested silhouette is a vertical image, thus I can either only make a part of it visible or shrink it down heavily (as done here).
Without any text or ship, the sig will look empty - except I'll heavily manipulate it with patterns and/or textures - and I'm no big fan of that.
Anyways, what do you think?:)
Edit: I'd suggest your name in the middle, where the sunlight is visible - the emptiness just cries for some text:laugh:
Of course, you're the one who decides.
I didn't like the way the all black silhouettes were taking the soul out of the character shot, so I just darkened him enough to make his features nondescript, but keeping him three dimensional. Rest of it mostly done from scratch.
